Hold down the cctrl key band target the viseroids to force your units to
fire on them. Use your more powerful armored units, like your Titans, and
not infantry.

And you almost got them in the right order too. ;-}

(After all, he did ask for them in order of publication).

Red Alert was certainly published before the Win95 version of C&C and I
have a feeling that the two add-ons were as well. I can't remember when
Sole Survivor came out (I never played it) but it was certainly later
than RA.

BTW - there were also more than 7 new missions on both Counterstrike (no
"The") and The Aftermath. In fact Counterstrike had 16 missions (not
counting the Ants campaign) and The Aftermath had 18.

"Reality leaves a lot to the imagination".

I don't think my order is wrong in the way you suggest. My C&C95 box reveals
that it is (c) 1995, whereas my C&C:RA box says it's 1996. The Counterstrike
says 1997, and so does Aftermath. As for Sole Survivor, I have no idea when
exactly it came out, though it certainly should be lower on the list as I
have a magazine that previews it in 1997. It probably came out after The
Aftermath but before Tiberian Sun.

As for the missions number, I don't know where I dug up the number 7. It
says right on my CD jewel cases that CS has 16 new missions and Aftermath
has 18. You're right that Counterstrike doesn't have a "the", looking at the
jewel case also shows that Aftermath DOES have a "the". Beats me why one
gets a determinant and the other doesn't.

True - but the (c)1995 refers to the release date of the original (DOS)
version of C&C (because that's when the copyright was filed). The reason
I'm so confident about the order of release is that I bought all of the
Westwood RTS games & add-ons as soon as they were available (until TS
diminished my enthusiasm).

For the record, I've just checked my Win95 version disks and "published
1998" is printed on the labels.

Dunno if I am off track...but C&C was before any RA

Yes - you're right (and wrong). ;-}

The original (DOS) version was released in 1995 but the C&C Gold version
(for Windows95) was released in 1998 - after RA and its add-ons.

BTW - please don't "top-post".

Point taken.  Guess it really does not matter which you play first.

All-in-all, my apologies for top posting.  Been on newsgroups for 5 or so
years and never had to worry about where the post was.  One year I wake-up
and it is a big fucking deal if you top post.  Ah well, newsgroups are still
fun...especially binary groups. :)

Question...what posting application do you use where it does the "...after
serious contemplation..." stuff?

Ceyko

I guess you're right. I saw the 1998 on my box but as it's the "value"
edition "gold trim" box (i.e. not the original, but the bargain bin
republished version), I thought that the 1998 referred to the date of that
publication of C&C95 rather than C&C95 itself.

I'm one of those (sad?) people who bought the DOS version of C&C and
then paid full price for the Win95 version when it was released three
years later. The guys at Westwood must have seen me coming. :-}

To be fair, there are many newsgroups where top-posting is the "norm" -
it's just that this isn't one of them. I've never been able to
understand the (lack of) logic behind top-posting.

>Question...what posting application do you use where it does the "...after
>serious contemplation..." stuff?

I use Turnpike, which is an application supplied free by my ISP. I find
it excellent for news-reading but not so good for email (so I use OE for
that). Turnpike allows you to customize the "attribution line" - amongst
other things.

You pretty much can't.

Yep - that sounds familiar. There is supposed to be a (complicated) way
around it but I can't remember how it works (I've never been tempted to
install Win2k.

>I don't wanna make a win95 partition on my hd !!!  :-)

"Upgrade" to XP - the Win95 compatibility mode is said to allow C&C and
RA to run.

Nice one - I didn't realise SP2 had a similar compatibility mode to XP.

Then again, it's a bit late for me to start learning about Win2k now.
:-}

BTW - I thought we'd convinced you of the benefits of bottom posting
long since. What made you change your mind?

Yes, yes, I remember the whole debate. But I'm sure you find my short,
trimmed, top-posts easier to read than TCPolina's untrimmed bottom-posts
that take 2 years to scroll down to. I believe the conclusion I reached
after that discussion was that for really short, snappy, answers that are
(usually) only about the immediately previous post I'm just going to
top-post and trim. When the discussion gets complicated (not likely on a
game-oriented group), I'll bottom post. It's a matter of whichever is easier
to write and easier to read as opposed to principle.

Hehe. It must be admitted that TCip still hasn't mastered the art of
formatting a post (sorry Tom). ;-}

Let's not go there again. :-}

The main trouble is that by exercising such "discretion" you set a bad
example for new posters.

There was also an Easter egg either on the original C&C for DOS (I assume
it's also present in C*C Gold) or the Covert Ops.

IIRC: Hack the command line you use to start C&C and add "funpark" (no
quotes) to the end. Select New Campaign or whatever the option is. Instead
of starting off as a GDI or NOD noob, you'll find yourself in chat with
Kane, directing you off on an altogether unusual campaign. I'll not spoil
the surprise. It's only a handful of games, but hey, there they are ...

You're absolutely right - it's been a while since I played those
missions. I might just load them up over the next few days - I will have
no internet access and only have my laptop with me for the next week so
an "undemanding" game like C&C will be about all I can expect.

And let's certainly not forget the Ant Missions Easter Egg in RA: Aftermath.
I think you just click on the speaker in the bottom-right or left to start
them up. It's three or four missions where you're fighting giant ants.

section 1 )how to get the missions
section 2) how to win the missions (u gotta email me for these)

and i suggest you try it, because the surprise is very cool.


The XXX  missions require you to have Covert Ops, but then prompts for
different discs when you start up.

to access:
do you have DOS or GOLD?
if GOLD, goto your "Start" then "Run" and put in the following:

c:\westwood\c&c95\c&c95 funpark

(be sure to space between C&C95 and funpark. Also, be sure your path is
c:westwood\c&c95)then hit OK.

if this is saved here you can re-launch it again at a later date

and thanks to Bennett (Dion@homesix.globalnet.co.uk) for his input on DOS:
For dos, you go to your dos prompt, get into your c&c directory and type:c&c
funpark. Same as with gold, just without the 95

and you will need redo this too if you want to go back to a saved level of
XXXXX since just opening  a saved XXXX level does not work (well, you can
finish that level, but you will not go to the next XXXXX  level)...one odd
thing in the redo: you need to start level one, then pause it ,and then open
your saved game...

RED ALERT:
Ants mission:
i got this from:
http://ra.ww-underground.com/amissions.shtml

"The Secret Ant Missions are rather simple to get to; if you know where to
look. You also must have the Counterstrike add-on for Red Alert. If you
don't, don't waste your time reading the rest of this page.

Simply start Red Alert as you normally would. At the title page -- the one
shown above -- hold down the left shift key and left-click on the speaker
circled in yellow in the upper right-hand corner. The program will then ask
you to select the difficulty level. After you have done this, a window will
pop up asking you to insert the Counterstrike cd-rom into your computer. Put
it in, hit enter, and the Secret Ant Missions should automatically start
up."

The Ant missions are on the Counterstrike disk. They are accessed by
holding the <shift> key (or was it <alt>) and clicking anywhere in the
top right hand section of the menu screen.
